1. Harry Coumnas Has Built A
House That Can Withstand
Volcanic Eruptions

2. A builder by profession, Harry Coumnas is a
resident of Hawaii Island. The young man hit
the headlines recently after he claimed to
have built a house that can withstand volcanic
eruptions. He says that as the Island of Hawaii
consists of five volcanoes, the local people
spend their life in the fear of calamities, like
lava flows, volcanic smog, explosive
eruptions, and earthquakes.

3. Although the scientists make active efforts to
protect the property and lives by issuing
timely warnings of the hazardous activities;
Harry always believed that something more
was needed to reduce the risks of volcano
hazards.

4. After Harry Coumnas lost many of his loved
ones in a fatal volcanic eruption, he became
more determined to find a solution to the
hazards that people residing near volcanoes
often face.

5. As a large number of houses were damaged
during the volcanic eruption and people had
no roof over their head; Harry decided that he
will build houses for the local people using
materials that could withstand the lava, ashes,
and cinders of a volcano.
